Tanzania has made significant social and economic progress in recent decades. The economy has grown by an average of 6.1 percent per year since 2000, elevating Tanzania from Low-Income Country (LIC) status to Lower Middle-Income Country (LMIC) status in 2020. Between 2000 and 2020, life expectancy rose from 52 years to 67 years (versus an increase from 60 years to 69 years in LMICs), and the duration of school attendance increased from 3.8 years to 6.4 years (versus growth from 4.9 years to 6.6 years in LMICs). In the last decade alone, the share of Tanzanians with access to electricity has increased from 5.6 percent to 39.9 percent (and from 2.5 percent to 22 percent in rural areas). Reducing the cost of trade should be an immediate policy priority. Addressing high trade costs requires both behind-the-border and at-the border policies, aiming to enhance operations both at border crossings and while goods are in transit. While all factors relevant to the business climate also affect trade performance, direct actions that can shape the volume and composition of trade include: (i) eliminating high tariffs that discourage exports and reduce access to imported inputs; (ii) addressing existing NTMs and curtailing the development of new ones, particularly for primary agricultural commodities; and (iii) simplifying documentation and procedures to improve customs risk management. The African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) offers an opportunity to reduce trade costs and improve market access, but comprehensive reforms are also needed.
